ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the radioprotective function of lianhuaqingwen (LHQW) in rat acute radiation-induced lung injury.Methods Totally 36 female Wistar rats were randomized into 3 groups as administered group (treated by LHQW plus radiation),radiation group irradiated with a single of 20 Gy in 6 MV X-ray by Elekta Synergy VMAT,and blank control group without radiation.Performance status (PS) was estimated during 31 d of LHQW instragastric administration.After rats being sacrificed at 1,14,28 d of LHQW adminstration,the pathomorphological changes were observed in trauma lung tissue,the cell number in BALF (Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid) was counted,the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in serum were measured by ELISA,and TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA expressions in lung tissue were assayed by RT-PCR.Results After LHQW treatment,the PS of rat was significantly elevated with less inflammation in morphous,and the cell number in BALF was markedly decreased in compare with radiation alone group.Furthermore,the serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were obviously reduced (tTNF-α =7.372,2.891,tIL-6 =6.335,3.257,P < 0.05) and the TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA levels in lung tissue were also decreased (tTNF-αmRNA =3.714,2.144,tIL-6mRNA =3.589,2.883,P<0.05).Conclusions LHQW plays a protective role against acute radiation-induced lung injury in rats and the down-expressions of TNF-α and IL-6 may be involved.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the inhibitory effect and possible mechanisms of lianhuaqingwen capsules on radiation-induced acute lung injury in rats. Methods Rats were randomly divided into control group, radiation group and radiation plus lianhuaqingwen group, the control group and the radiation group rats were given 0. 9% sodium chloride solution, the radiation plus lianhuaqingwen group rats were given lianhuaqingwen 0. 9% chlorine sodium solution. HE staining was applied to test the lung tissue inflammation; quantitative RT-PCR and ELISA were used to measure the content of IL-6, TNF-α and MCP-1 in rats;immunohistochemical assay was taken to detect the infiltration of macrophage in lung tissues. Results The relative mRNA expression of IL-6, TNF-α and MCP-1 in the control, radiation model control and radiation plus Lianhuaqingwen groups were (0. 002 1±0. 000 20),(0. 006 6±0. 000 32),(0. 003 9±0. 000 22); (0. 003 7±0. 000 16),(0. 007 4±0. 000 33),(0. 005 5± 0.000 24);(0.001 4±0.000 15),(0.005 4±0.000 72),(0.003 2±0.000 17),respectively; the concentration (pg·mL-1) of IL-6,TNF-αand MCP-1 in the serum were (35. 2±10. 9),(111. 8±26. 1),(68. 2±15. 2); (229. 3±28. 5),(837. 5±57. 6), (566. 9±39. 8);(96. 85±8. 20),(314. 53±12. 76),(191. 32±10. 97),respectively; and the macrophages at high magnification field in each group were (59. 5±4. 3),(503. 9±25. 8)and (106. 2±12. 6), respectively. Lianhuaqingwen capsules significantly alleviated the lung inflammation in rats with radiation-induced acute lung injury,inhibited the accumulation of macrophage in lung tissue,reduced the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α,and decreased the content of MCP-1 in lung tissues and sera(P<0. 05). Conclusion Lianhuaqingwen capsules attenuated the lung inflammation developed in rats with radiation-induced acute lung injury through inhibiting the expression of MCP-1 and reducing the accumulation of macrophage in lung tissues.
